Artist's Biography
In the beginning
It
all began in 2017. Darren Knight was writing songs as a form of therapy
after the tragic passing of his wife and Stone River was by his side to
support him. The guys were jamming and writing frequently. and liking what
was coming out so they decided themselves a band and River Knight was born.
Things were going well and in early 2019 the fellas decided to make River
Knight official and started playing live shows. The lads wanted to release
the first song they wrote, so they got together with Greyum May (Keeper's
Brew) at Mutant Labs Studio in Southampton in late 2018 and recorded
Heaven's Door which is available through Bandcamp. As a tribute to Steph all
proceeds from that release are going to charity.
Recording in isolation
Throughout 2018/2019 momentum was growing, they were continually writing new
songs and had regular gigs in London, Portsmouth and Southampton with a view
to moving further afield, but then Covid happened! Rather than sit back and
wait they recorded their debut album "Grow" remotely throughout lockdown
during the entirety of 2020, and when the restrictions were over they got
together in their custom built studio and invited a few friends to play on a
couple of tracks to celebrate. The end result "Grow" is an album of songs
that celebrate the power of positivity, full of character and meaning.
